Several drivers have tried to rise through the ranks of DTM in an effort to reach Formula One. Although the decision may look like a risky gamble, it did pay off for Scotland’s Paul di Resta.

The venture eventually proved successful when Di Resta won the DTM title in 2010, and became a fully-fledged F1 driver alongside Adrian Sutil at Force India the following season.
